TEXAS LEADS U. S.

AMARILLO. PLAINVIEW ASK
FOR 1932 MEET OF
BREEDING CLUB
derwood of Denton was elected vice-
president and J. W. Ridgway and
D. T. Simmons of Fort Worth were
re-elected treasurer and secretary,
respectively. New directors are Shel-
ton and O. D. Worthley, Sherman.
D. T. Simmons, Fort Worth, for
eight years club secretary, read sta-
tistics to the club which showed
how far Texas leads the nation in
Jersey cattle registration and trans-
fers. Six Texas counties were on
the list of 10 banner counties of
the nation, compiled for the last fis-
cal year of the American Cattle
Club, Simmons said.
Grayson county was first In Texas
in transfers of registered cattle, and
third in the nation. Hopkins coun-
ty was second in Texas, fifth in the
nation; Fannin, third in the state,
seventh in the nation. In registra-
tion, Brooks county led the nation
and the state. Hunt county was sec-
ond in Texas, fifth in the nation.
Hopkins county was third in the
state and seventh in the nation,
Simmons said.
Young Texas is following in the
footsteps of it* elders, he said. He
found that in 1B30 there were 1.066
boys In calf clubs, raising 1,365
calves. Adult Interest continues,
with 176 bull associations, 643
standard bulls, and 2,159 breeders
using them.
Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Johns of
P&mpa were Monday and Tuesday
guests of Mr. and Mrs. George Mc-
Fann.
No longer will Panhandle and
West Texas children feel left out
when studying geography where
every other portion of the state Is
mentioned but their’s for through
the efforts of the section's boost-
ers their industries will get atten-
tion, also.
Many changes have been pro-
mised in Macmillan company’s “Ele-
mentary Geography” textbook as a
result of the activities of the West
Texas Chamber of Commerce, head-
quarters of the regional commercial
body stated.
Public school students in Texas
and 27 other states study the Mac-
millan book, officials of the cham-
ber of commerce said. They added
that publishers of the book had
promised to distribute the revised
edition during 1931.
The revisions were suggested spe-
cifically by the West Texas Cham-
ber of Commerce, which claimed
that Texas, and especially West
Texas had been unfairly treated in
geography texts, in that very little
mention was made of any of the
products, attractions and character-
istics of West Texas.
"Publishers of other geographies
used in Texas and in other parts
of the United States are expected
to follow the lead of the Macmillan
company in the near future,” said
the West Texas Chamber of Com-
merce statement.
The new "Elementary Geography"
texts will mention that Texas is the
leading state In the nation in the
production of cattle, sheep and
goats; it will give West Texas credit
for the oil it produces in such enor-
mous quantities; it will mention the
advantages certain cities and sec-
tions of Texas offer tourists, and it
will point out that three of the
eight southern cities with popula-
tions of over 200,000 are in Texas,
the regional chamber reported.
Grain sorghums, produced in im-
portant quantities in West Texas,
will be mentioned In public school
geographies for the first time, the
announcement continued. Grain
sorghums are rapidly becoming
equal to oom as a livestock feed, it
was claimed.
In the present edition of the “Ele-
mentary Geography," no mention is
made of there being an oil derrick
in West Texas, officials stated. The
new book likely will contain a pic-
ture of a ranch scene in West Texas,
three combines harvesting wheat in
West Texas, and of a West Texas
cotton field.
